The sonic fabric of 2nd Person, [originally] a multi-channel video installation, is formed through an array of women’s voices orchestrated as parallel tracks in a musical composition. The speakers, all women I have intimately known at different points in my life -- my child, my mother, my best friends, students, mentors -- talk with me about aging, growing up, death, motherhood, love and loss. They reflect on menopause and coming of age; express their anxiety about no longer giving birth, and their reluctance to become a parent; they speak about touching, and inhabiting, an aging body and about the struggle to define oneself as a sexual being.
